OT but coin related in a way. (For the computer expert)

Can someone please tell me how I can do something like the clock in this auction.
I use front page. Do I need to use some other software to do this?
ebay link

Thanks
Mike

    my suggestion is don't, those kind of things really turn me off. I will press the back button in a cocaine heartbeat when I see that.

    Use your browser to view the source code for the auction.

    Search for "dCol". Beginning with the PREVIOUS LINE, select everything down until you get to the line that contains /SCRIPT (and include that line also.)

    That looks like the code to use.

    And, I also hate auctions that use that pointer-following crap.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

  • It will not be used in one of my auctions.
    I like to play around with making home pages and thought it would be neat to have that on one of them.
    Thanks

  • How can I make the clock not move with the mouse?
    For example stay in place centered on the screen?

    Can't help you with that, sorry.

    Notice you can't right click the picture? The script.......blah blah blah..............script right below the clock script causes that.
    But you can right click and hit ENTER at the same time and snag the pict.

    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

  • Ok Thank you everyone.
    I am into that kind of thing for personal use. You will never see something like that on one of my auctions.
    That was very interesting about the right click bypass.
    Thanks
